I am retired so I do not have a current use for this listing of reasons to call in sick to work. As a long-time manager, I can not recall ever having to listen to any of these excuses, but maybe you did.

There are some reasons you should never give for calling in sick. An earlier survey from CareerBuilder listed some of the most absurd reasons for calling in sick, including the following:
- The employee said the ozone in the air flattened his tires.
- The employee’s pressure cooker had exploded and scared her sister, so she had to stay home.
- The employee had to attend the funeral of his wife’s cousin’s pet because he was an uncle and pallbearer.
- The employee was blocked in by police raiding her home.
- The employee had to testify against a drug dealer, and the dealer’s friend mugged him.
- The employee said her roots were showing, and she had to keep her hair appointment because she looked like a mess.
The employee ate cat food instead of tuna and was deathly ill.
- The employee said she wasn’t sick, but her llama was.
- The employee had used a hair remover under her arms and had chemical burns as a result. She couldn’t put her arms down by her sides due to that.
- The employee was bowling the game of his life and couldn’t make it to work.
- The employee was experiencing traumatic stress from a large spider found in her home. She had to stay home to deal with the spider.
- The employee said he had better things to do.
- The employee ate too much birthday cake.
- The employee was bitten by a duck.
